Reply to "trouble with isolated section of track"

Or it could be that the lights in the passenger car are serving as the "magic lights" that DCS seems to need to work in some environments.  One way to test is to put the engine in the section of track, observe it not working, then connect the 2 outside rails with a length of wire with alligator clips on each end as suggested above.  If the engine runs, then it is an outside rail pickup problem.  If the engine still doesn't run, it is the "magic lights" in the passenger car making it run.
